Does anyone know if there are any books or museums which have photos of the aftermarth of isandlwana on programs you can see photos of isandlwana with all the wrekage and stuff and i was reading a great book wich shows most of englands colonial wars thorugh photos and it mentions the burial part returning a few months later and photographing the site.
Thanks for any help..... | Date | Replies | 19th August 2002 | John Young Alex,
I have a number of photographs, some taken on the 21st May, 1879, in my own collection. If you need any just e-mail me and I'll forward them to you as jpegs.

I would also be VERY interested in seeing thoes photo's! I have never seen any after the battle photo's of Isandlwana. Its a shame that a photographer could not have taken a photo-essay of the battlefield similar to the "Brady" photo's taken at Gettysburg after the 1863 Battle. If you have ever seen these, you could imagine what Isandlwana might have looked like, only the bodies being in far worse condition.
Thanks in advance,
Best regards
